Usually, buying a car is a huge luxury. You can avoid the heat with a press of the air conditioning button and play your tunes, making Manila traffic a bit more bearable. With gas prices on the rise though, it may not be the most practical choice for everyone. A motorbike on the other hand is cheaper to run and will let you squeeze through tight spots. What’s compromised is exposure to the elements and a bit of safety. What if we told you that you could get both though? Now you can, because buying a “new” Kia Soluto now comes with a complimentary KTM 200 Duke motorbike. Talk about a sweet deal.

This may leave some with their eyebrows raised in doubt so we’ll clear up the air. The catch here is that you’ll be getting a 2020 Model Year Kia Soluto, so it would be considered “old stock” by some people. If you think about it though, it isn’t any less brand new than a 2022 model since it hasn’t been sold or used either. The cars in this promo have just been sitting a little bit longer than their younger siblings. In terms of features or details, there virtually isn’t any difference between the two model years – which makes sense since they are cars of the same generation just 2 years apart.

For those not familiar with the car in question, it’s a subcompact sedan that can seat 4-5 people. It has an economical 1.4L engine outputting 95PS, mated to either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. It has the run-of-the-mill features you will have come to expect coming from a car of this segment, including a 7-inch touch display with Android Auto/Apple CarPlay as well as dual front airbags for safety. Daily drivability should be a breeze with this vehicle.

The Duke, on the other hand, is a 200cc sport bike with the characteristics from its larger siblings. The naked bike features a lightweight tubular chassis along with a 26 hp 4-stroke power plant, marketed as a “street-prowling brawler.” The transmission is a 6-speed while it also comes with safety features like ABS.

A report by CarGuide mentions that the 2020 Kia Soluto goes for Php 20,000 cheaper than the 2022 version: Php 720,000 as compared to Php 740,000. With the KTM 200 Duke bundled with the Kia Soluto valued at Php 178,000, there is no doubt that this value proposition has more upside than downside (if any).

What you do with the bike after you get it is entirely up to you. The option to sell it remains, but it could also cover up for the shortcomings of driving a car every day. You could also use the bike for your entrepreneurial ventures, whatever they may be.

Should the KTM 200 Duke not interest you, other promos that you can avail with the Kia Soluto are a free ceramic coating, free PMS bundles, or even an iPhone 13 – then the difference will just be converted into further discounts taken from the purchase price of the vehicle.

Participating branches include Kia BGC, Alabang, and Mandaluyong.
